Download or read book Diplomacy and Crisis Management in the Balkans written by Gazmen Xhudo and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-27 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the fall of the Berlin Wall, observers and players of American foreign policy have been wrestling with what US policy is and, more importantly, what it should be in the post-Cold War era. The breakdown of communism in the East has coincided with the outbreak of warfare in the former Yugoslavia to add a new sense of urgency for those seeking a direction for US foreign policy. This work seeks to demonstrate how reactive rather than proactive measures by the US, in both democracy promotion and in crisis management have been short-sighted, resulting in the present failure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2012 in the subject Politics - Topic: Peace and Conflict, Security, , language: English, abstract: This paper will argue that though the character of crises occupying the international agenda may have changed, the skills and expertise possessed by professional diplomats have proven to be irreplaceable in addressing crisis situations. It will do this in two parts. First, it will briefly examine traditional formations of ‘international crisis’ and ‘crisis diplomacy’, arguing that these concepts need to be adjusted to encompass the contemporary global environment. Second, it will compare the efficacy of state and non-state agents in mediating crisis situations, demonstrating that professional diplomats are still without equal.
Download or read book Peacemakers written by James W. Pardew and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2018-01-05 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wars that accompanied the breakup of Yugoslavia in the 1990s were the deadliest European conflicts since World War II. The violence escalated to the point of genocide when, over the course of ten days in July 1995, Serbian troops under the command of General Ratko Mladic murdered 8,000 unarmed men and boys who had sought refuge at a UN safe-haven in Srebrenica. Shocked, the United States quickly launched a diplomatic intervention supported by military force that ultimately brought peace to the new nations created when Yugoslavia disintegrated. Peacemakers is the first inclusive history of the successful multilateral intervention in the Balkans from 1995--2008 by an official directly involved in the diplomatic and military responses to the crises. A deadly accident near Sarajevo in 1995 thrust James Pardew into the center of efforts to stop the fighting in Bosnia. In a detailed narrative, he shows how Richard Holbrooke and the US envoys who followed him helped to stop or prevent vicious wars in Bosnia, Croatia, Kosovo, and Macedonia. Pardew describes the human drama of diplomacy and war, illuminating the motives, character, talents, and weaknesses of the national leaders involved. Pardew demonstrates that the use of US power to relieve human suffering is a natural fit with American values. Peacemakers serves as a potent reminder that American leadership and multilateral cooperation are often critical to resolving international crises.

Download or read book Disaster Diplomacy written by Ilan Kelman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-08-26 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When an earthquake hits a war zone or cyclone aid is flown in by an enemy, many ask: Can catastrophe bring peace? Disaster prevention and mitigation provide similar questions. Could setting up a flood warning system bring enemy countries together? Could a regional earthquake building code set the groundwork for wider regional cooperation? This book examines how and why disaster-related activities do and do not create peace and reduce conflict. Disaster-related activities refer to actions before a disaster such as prevention and mitigation along with actions after a disaster such as emergency response, humanitarian relief, and reconstruction. This volume investigates disaster diplomacy case studies from around the world, in a variety of political and disaster circumstances, from earthquakes in Greece and Turkey affecting these neighbours’ bilateral relations to volcanoes and typhoons influencing intra-state conflict in the Philippines. Dictatorships are amongst the case studies, such as Cuba and Burma, along with democracies such as the USA and India. No evidence is found to suggest that disaster diplomacy is a prominent factor in conflict resolution. Instead, disaster-related activities often influence peace processes in the short-term—over weeks and months—provided that a non-disaster-related basis already existed for the reconciliation. That could be secret negotiations between the warring parties or strong trade or cultural links. Over the long-term, disaster-related influences disappear, succumbing to factors such as a leadership change, the usual patterns of political enmity, or belief that an historical grievance should take precedence over disaster-related bonds. This is the first book on disaster diplomacy. Disaster-politics interactions have been studied for decades, but usually from a specific political framing, covering a specific geographical area, or from a specific disaster framing. As well, plenty of quantitative work has been completed, yet the data limitations are rarely admitted openly or thoroughly analysed. Few publications bring together the topics of disasters and politics in terms of a disaster diplomacy framework, yielding a grounded, qualitative, scientific point of view on the topic.

Book Synopsis Analysing the Foreign Policy of Small States in the EU by : H. Larsen
Download or read book Analysing the Foreign Policy of Small States in the EU written by H. Larsen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2005-08-03 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can a distinct national foreign policy still be identified for small EU member states, and what accounts for the balance between national and EU foreign policy? Henrik Larsen develops an analytical framework for analyzing these questions and offers solutions through an empirical examination of the foreign policy of a small EU member state in the context of EU foreign policy - the case of Denmark. The book looks at seven policy areas: policy towards other EU member states, anti-terrorism, development, the Balkans, Africa, Latin America and trade. On the basis of the empirical study, the implications for the theoretical study of national foreign policy in an EU Context are outlined. It is suggested that we need a new, mixed approach to foreign policy analysis within the EU taking into account the nature of the policy area concerned and national conceptions of actorness.
Book Synopsis Enhancing Capabilities for Crisis Management and Disaster Response by : Filip Hostiuc
Download or read book Enhancing Capabilities for Crisis Management and Disaster Response written by Filip Hostiuc and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-03-31 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science for Peace and Security (SPS) cooperation brings together NATO & partners to address common security concerns reflected in the so-called SPS Key Priorities. These include emerging security challenges such as terrorism, cyber defense or energy security, as well as human and social aspects of security, support to NATO-led mission and operation, advanced technologies with security applications, and early warning. The SPS project “Advanced Civil Emergency Coordination Pilot in the Western Balkans” addresses several of these areas. As a key regional SPS flagship project, it helps to build capacity in response to a concrete security challenge. The Western Balkans is a region frequently affected by natural disasters and the pilot project provides emergency responders in the region with an incident command system that allows sharing information about disasters in a fast and easy way, enhancing situational awareness and building capacity in the area of civil emergency coordination.
Book Synopsis Maintaining International Relations Through Digital Public Diplomacy Policies and Discourses by : Elita?, Türker
Download or read book Maintaining International Relations Through Digital Public Diplomacy Policies and Discourses written by Elita?, Türker and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2022-11-04 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communication technologies have become an important tool for instantaneous effects and reactions both individually and collectively. The fact that traditional discourses become digital by transferring them through tools heralded a new understanding of digital in individual and social networks. The tendency to use these features offered by communication technologies in international relations, rather than just individual use, has emerged as a result of being built over digital in their discourse on diplomacy. However, the concepts of transparency and public offering, which do not exist in classical democracy, clearly show themselves in digital public diplomacy. Maintaining International Relations Through Digital Public Diplomacy Policies and Discourses reveals the tendencies of countries, institutions, and their representatives to use communication technologies as a diplomatic tool in international relations practices. It reveals the difference between the discourses built on digital media and classical diplomacy. Covering topics such as crisis management, new media platforms, and international relations, this premier reference source is an excellent resource for government officials, diplomats, social media managers, communications professionals, students and faculty of higher education, libraries, researchers, and academicians.
